Safer Internet day 2022

By Catherine Dodds27th February 2022

Safer Internet Day 2022 took place on 8th February with the theme ‘All fun and games? Exploring respect and relationships online’.

The teachers across ks1 and ks2 introduced the children to Google’s Be Internet Legends programme which teaches young children how to become smart and confident explorers of the online world. The children were very excited to receive their own  3D-printed Internet Legend trophy in pieces which they could take home to finish with their families. To unlock assembly instructions, the children were required to correctly answer twenty quiz questions on topics like strong passwords, standing up to cyberbullies and keeping personal information secure.

The children were very excited to show off their finished trophy. Some of the children shared photos of their finished project via Google Classroom whilst others brought them back to school the next day. A very fun, challenging but informative day. The teachers were extremely impressed with the children’s knowledge of internet safety. Well done Laygate School.

Chinese Ribbon Dance

3rd February 2022Catherine Dodds

To celebrate Chinese New Year on the 1st February 2022, the children from KS1 and KS2 took part in a Chinese Ribbon dance workshop.

Chinese ribbon dancing is a traditional art form that originates in ancient China and has been performed for over 1000 years. Using sharp, rhythmic movements and long colorful ribbons dancers perform to traditional Chinese music. The people of the Han dynasty created and performed the ribbon dance in gratitude and honor. The ribbons symbolise the sleeve of the hero who saved a Han Dynasty emperor from an assassin by using the silk from his sleeve to block the sword.
